Thank you for choosing the Linksys Wireless-G Router for
Mobile Broadband. The Router lets you access the Internet
through either your mobile broadband service (requires
a mobile broadband data card or USB adapter, available
separately), or your cable or DSL broadband service. This
access can be shared via a wireless connection or through
one of the Router's four switched ports.
A variety of security features help to protect your data
and your privacy while online. Security features include
WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) security, a Stateful Packet
Inspection (SPI) firewall, and NAT technology. Configuring
the Router is easy using the Setup Wizard or provided
browser-based utility.
